"Can a woman forget her nursing child and have no compassion on the son of her womb? Even these may forget, but I will not forget you. Behold, I have engraved you on the palms of My hands. . ." (Isaiah 49:15-16)

Just thinking. . .

So, I have to say that I am a bit nervous when I think of my kids going to our high school. Not b/c it's bad, but b/c it's big. . .and I wasn't sure how much "Christian thought and speech" would be allowed. Not because there aren't Christians there, not because I think my child should not be in public school. . .It's just that I grew up in the Bible belt. All our Christmas programs were about, well, Christ. (Imagine that!)
However, tonight, I went to hear our god-daughter sing in the Christmas program in her school. And, guess what? Jesus name was sung. Christmas hymns were sung. And, as God has reminded me lately, where His name is spoken, it does not go out void. Because Jesus Christ, Savior, Emmanuel. . .are all-powerful words, names of the most High! So, tonight, in public school, His name resonated within four walls! It will change hearts, it will cause questioning, HE will be glorified in ALL places at ALL times! That is one reason I think it's so important to say, "Merry Christmas". . .Not b/c I think it's bad to say, "Happy Holidays!", but because I want the NAME, "Hashem", to be spoken! Creation cries out daily. . .well, the creation that obeys His voice! The human part of creation. . .we could improve! So, cry out His name today, tomorrow, and each day after! Let the earth be filled with His praise!!

The Hiding Place by Corrie ten Boom

“Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow; it empties today of its strength.”

A Quote by C.S.Lewis

"There is one vice of which no man in the world is free; which everyone in the world loathes when he sees it in someone else, and of which hardly any people, except Christians, ever imagine they are guilty of themselves. . .it was through Pride that the devil became the devil: Pride leads to every other vice; it is the complete anti-God state of mind."

Devotions

In an attempt to deepen my own faith walk and keep myself in the Word, I hope to make this a devotional blog where I post a weekly devotional at the end of each week. I am not an expert on the scripture. . . just an everyday gal who would like to learn more. Occasionally, I may post something I read or heard that I find inspiring! I hope that this can be a place of peace, reflection, and comfort for you as you journey on your own faith walk!
